They Gain Their Point,

CHICAGO, May 2.-The officers of the
Hod-carriers' union claim that only 1,500
men are out, the others having received
what they demanded. A meeting of the
Master Masons' and Builders Associations
has been called to meet tomorrow night
for the purpose of taking action regarding
the strike. Less than 200 wood. carvers
went out to-day on the threatened general
strike. Before evening most of them were
successful in obtaining the desired promise
of ten hours pay for nine hours work. a
majority of the carvers were given the ad-
vance without striking, The strike of the
walters, which was set for to-day, failed to
materialize. Every restaurant but one ac-
ceded to the request for 10 per cent. higher

NO ROOM FOR GEORGE MEN.
The Union Labor Party Not Likely to

The Union Labor Party Not Likely to
Admit Henry Georges Glass.
Colonel Jesse Harper, of Illinois, the
national orator of the Union Labor party,
is in the city to attend the meeting of the
National Executive Committee of that Or
ganization which conveRes at the Grand
Hotel at 10 o'clock this morning. He will
probably speak here this evening. When
asked by the Sentinel what important
work would come before the committee,
he said:
Tine principal thing to be considered
is permanent organization and to devise
plans for that is what they have been
called together for"
What about the trouble with the Henry
George men?"
"They will not be recognized-that is all
there viii be to that. If they want to or
ganize a national party on the isolated
land theory OF Mr.. George let them do it,
One thing is certain, we have no use for
any one in the UHion Labor doctrine that
advocates such theory. There is another
class we are shutting out of our organiza-
ton. 1 refer to Socialists. There was one
on the committee in Chicago and he was
put off. The same will be done in New
York and all other places. Socialists and
Henry George men must stand back"
What are your predictions as to the
next presidential contest"
81 think the two old parties will COM
bine, and either Mr.. Cleveland or John
Sherman will be the nominee; either of
them would be satisfactory to the capital
lists of Wall street. If there are three
candidates the election viii surely be
thrown into the House of Representatives,
which, of course, would result in Demo-
cratic victory. The United Labor party
will carry Kansas and Nebraska and several
other StatesD

Extended His Leave of Absence.

PARIS, May IN. Schnabeles' leave OF
absence from the office of commissary at
Pavny-Sur-M -Moselle has been extended two
months. At the end of his leave he will be
entitled to retire on pension. He asserts
that the German commissary, Gautsch.
who invited HIM to AIRS, pointed him out
to the German detectives who arrested him.
The German official report of the affair
says that commissary named Tausch was
intruste6 with the task of arresting Selma
beles, and 1t is probable that the names OF
Tausch ano Gautsch were unconsciously
mixed by those who accused Gautsch Of
tIeacherY to Schnabeles.

The Fotberinebam Case,

ST. LOUIS, May 2.-The jury in the Foth-
eringham case was completed this after
noon, and testimony will begin tomorrow.
1t is not at all likely, however, that the
trial will proceed far before the question of
Jurisdiction is raised. Fotheringham was
indicted for larceny from a railroad tram,
and can be tried only in the county in
which the offense was committed. When
the State fails to show that the robbery was
committed in st. Louis, and it is believed
that they will, it is understood that Judge
Normile will instruct the jury to acquit the
defendant. What will be done then is not
known, but it seems to be the general be-
lief in legal circles that there will be no
further prosecution.

proprietors of the Hooverville mills, six

o'clock left his house, and as he and his
family were to come to the city in the

and searching through the mill he
was found in bin on the fifth story
on his knees, hanging by a halter strap
fastened around his neck and thirty-two
caliber revolver lying by his side, with
which be had sent a ball through
his head. He had prepared himself
to hang in case the shot failed
to kill. 1t is supposed that in
OF Grating the Touring mill he was un-
successful and had become despond-
ent. The rash act was q great sur.
prise to those who knew him. The de-
ceased was a highly esteemed and we'll
connected citizen. He leaves a widow and
four children to mourn his untimely death.
His domestic relations are said to have been
most pleasant. His life was insured in
various companies, aggregating in all
$4,000. The Coroner stated that in his
opinion he died from the pistol shot, fired
by his own hand during temporary in
sanity. His funeral was held to-day from
his late residence.

to pay a bill of damages. 1t tran
spired not only from investigation
of these complaints, but subsequently
by admissions of some of the persons who
had made these unveracious statements,
that they were utterly without founda-
tion, were reckless, and were often
times based on misapprehensions and
want of knowledge of circumstances,
When the papers were brought down
it would be found that the statements of
distinguished members of the Government
of the United States, that Canadian fisher
les laws and regulations had been ad-
ministered with brutality, was as pre-
posterous an exaggeration as could be
found in the English language.

MORRIS, ILL.,, May 2.-The points and affi-
dayits in support Of new trlal for Schwartz
and Watt, the convicted train robbers,
were fled to-day. Aside from technical
objections and alleged new testimony, the
reason urged is the improper influence
claimed to have been exercised on the jury
by Rev. Axtell. 1t was Mr.. Axtell who
when the jury was attending divine service
at his church one Sunday during the trial,
took occasion to deliver an extraordinary
address, apparently designed TO emphasize
the value of circumstantial evidence.
